Newday

Newday is an annual Christian youth festival organised by the Newfrontiers family of churches. Established since August 2004, the event is aimed at young people between the ages of 12 to 19, either Christian or non-Christian.

Vision

Newday's stated vision is to bring God into the lives of young people through social action. This includes performing voluntary community work during the festival period, worshipping God through music, preachers and prayers.
